Dog Pee Stain on Carpet

My little dog decided to pee in a corner of the room on my beige rug that I didn't catch so the stain set. It's yellow and its smells. I tried store bought cleaners like resolve and others but the stain is still there and it still smells. Can anyone out there suggest anything to get this stain out and help the smell in the rug? Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Try Fresh & Clean. They sell it at a pet store. It is amazing. It has peroxide in it. I use it when I volunteer at an animal shelter. Natures Miracle requires to much and very expensive.

I found an old pee stain from my Mom's dog when she came to stay with me......the dog may have even peed in the same spot a couple of times..not sure. I tried vinegar, carpet shampoo, pet stain remover, etc. and I could still smell pee. I then used "kidsnclutter" suggestion about 3 or so post above....

Mix (any brands) 8 ounces hydrogen peroxide (brown bottle in 1st aid aisle), 1/4 cup baking soda (orange box baking aisle), and just two drops ONLY of hand dishwashing liquid. Mix this well in a bucket & put into a spray bottle or sprinkle can. Use liberally. Allow to dry, or blot up & reapply allowing to dry after blotting excess. This will cure the odor even for the pet, and remove the stain, even set in stains. Some might require re-treatment. This solution must be used within about 20 minutes of mixing, works from the byproducts produced, does not store well. Won't work as well if stored, no byproducts anymore. Can still use as an all purpose cleaner if left over. This has saved many mattresses & oriental type rugs. Be sure it gets to the padding of the carpeting also. Beware of damaging hard woods under carpet.

It worked wonders. I smell no pee at all.....hopefully the smell dose not retun...I know at times this can happen. I will wait and see but I am pretty sure this has taken care of the problem!!! YEA!!!!!!

I stayed up and everyone else is asleep and my dog peed. I cant get the stain out HELP. I need help fast, please.

Many cleaners will work but make sure you are using cool water. Since it's a protein based stain warm water will just cause it to set in faster!

I used baking soda to get the stain out, wait 10 minutes, then vaccuum it up. any longer and it will stain the carpet white

I agree with Cindy A. Natures Miracle is the best that I have used. I have two dogs and a new home, it works.

I actually have tried the Simple Green and Carpet Fresh but haven't had much luck. I find it works with vomit stains but not with pee stains. They keep reappearing. However, I'm trying this on berber carpet. Does anybody have any berber carpet advice?

I have had very good results with pet stains (and the even worse stains caused by my kids' barf) using both the "Kids and Pets" and "Nature's Miracle" products. lately I've been using the K&P, which can be found at Meijer. The "Miracle" should be easily found in pet stores like PETCO.

Applied liberally to soak the stain, well blotted up, followed by rinsing out with water using a wet carpet cleaner (I have a Bissell) Some stains required several spot treatments, where I would liberally soak the stain and leave the cleaner on, allowing it do dissolve the organic stain. For severe vomit stains, I used these products as the detergent component, with hot water rinse, in the Bissell. That, and a lot of patience.

I was watching my mom and dad's dog and it went pee pee on the carpet... I used my rug shampooer and it didn't get the stain out... Any suggestions?

Thanks a ton,
:) Jamie
